‘Mesmerizing … tender yet unflinching’, is what Amrita Mahale, author of Milk Teeth, has to say in praise of Anukrti Upadhyay’s novel, Kintsugi, which we at HarperCollins India are delighted to publish.
Kintsugi, named after the ancient Japanese art of mending broken objects with gold, is a novel about young women and men puzzling over the lines between love and desire, attachment and freedom. It is the story of Meena, rebellious and unexamined, and Yuri, as complex as Meena is naive; of Hajime, outsider to two cultures, and Prakash, unable to see beyond his limited horizons. It is also the story of Haruko who has dedicated herself to her art, and of Leela who is determined to learn the traditional craft of her community despite all sorts of obstacles.
Moving between Jaipur and Japan, Kintsugi follows the lives of these characters as they intersect and diverge, collide and break and join again in unexpected ways. The result is a novel of astonishing virtuosity – as profound as it is playful, and as emotionally moving as it is gripping.
